not 100% but it perhaps it replicates 60-70% of the actual experience, so a lot more enjoyable to write on right now.

it's matte finish right? which means it'll "degrade" some resolution.

Anyone care to share experience on using the magic mouse here? Am thinking of getting one. A drawback I heard was on the battery. Thanks!
*
magic mouse is awesome especially with mac os. but ipados is very limited, not as complete as magic trackpad.
battery life not bad at all. using the first generation on daily basis. replace the battery twice for three months. i thikn second generation should be the same, if not better.

Thanks! Seems like one more item to get! As I need to switch between 2 devices.

Apple bad #2 - if Windows have moved pdf files in google drive to say NAS, IpadOS can't view...
congrats! (I see that you are a runner, how are you coping in MCO? =)
*
ipad can't read the file or can't locate nas?

To follow up, I don’t think it’s really that heavy, it is heavy don’t get me wrong but the carbon footprint itself would make it a lot more easier to carry around

interesting.....you got me thinking again.

Yes it is. I am looking for temporary solution. With pkp, i sign a lot of doc in pdf. While my pencil seems have to be sent to apple center, it may takes sometime. I am looking for new pencil alternative.

Adonit is seems good brand. Do you think adonit pixel will works on ipad pro? I see in web there are 2 types, adonit pixel and pixel pro. I just need a pen that can sign is enough already.

get a second hand pencil. look around carousell. or get a cheap ass alternative.

thanks for the detail review. End of the day, will you recommend this keyboard? if you can add in some pictures here and there, it'll be a perfect review.

My quick take after using Magic Keyboard for 2 days is that, if you are not using keyboard that much, then it’s probably not for you as it’s more like a iPad stand with keyboard, albeit a very expensive one.

For those who rely on iPad to work like myself, it’s a godsend. Really good keyboard feel and key travel. I like it more than my 1st gen magic keyboard for Mac. The trackpad is not as good as those on MacBook, mainly because of its size. The responsiveness is fine, like any Apple made trackpad.

Does the weight bother you? Unless it’s in stationary mode most of the time.

My china brand paper-like screen protector finally came and just installed it. This is the Benks brand that seems most popular on Lazada compared to others.

Haven't fully tested it out with actual use, but just some initial impressions of it:

- this definitely isn't just a normal matte finish protector branded as paperlike. its a lot rougher. Some people have said some are like sandpaper - which is not too wrong, because sandpaper have different grades. i would say this is like the most finest sandpaper (ones used for finishing). or another comparison, it feels rougher than normal paper; and is more like the thick art paper feeling.

- don't notice any drastic loss in screen brightness or quality, similar to any matte screen protector in this case.

- when using with the apple pencil. It definitely improves the drawing feel with the added friction. it does have a nice 'sketchy' sound when in contact if you know what i mean. although at the back of my mind i do cringe because i know it wears out the pencil faster than on the bare glass.

- using with fingers is strange and of course not as nice compared to a smooth one. but should get use to it over time.

Will use it more and see how it feels after a few weeks, but generally no complaints. I bought the iPad mainly for doing drawings and art applications so this helps a lot. But for those who don't plan to draw or write often with the pencil, I would skip it as better to have a smooth one using finger swiping.
